I don’t know why you contact someone to tell you what you already know… Oh, because you think I’m psychic.
Lady: Does he still think of me?
Me: How long were you together?
Lady: We weren’t together, we only texted.
Me: Yes he still thinks of you.
Lady: How does he think of me, does he miss me?
Me: He thinks of you as an option.
Lady: Like he is using me or sex?
Me: Yes.
Lady: Do you see him coming back?
Me: Yes but you don’t need that. You need someone that will see you.
Lady: He doesn’t want to see me? Why?
Me: It’s not that he doesn’t, it’s that he hasn’t. He has something going on he’s not telling you about.
Lady: Was I right to leave him?
Me: Yes.
INT. LIVING ROOM — DAY
GIRL (20s) and GUY (20s) sit on the couch in front of the television. Guy takes out his cell phone and strolls through his text messages. Girl looks at him furiously.
GIRL
Who are you texting?
GUY
My sister.
GIRL
Thought you said you don’t have a sister?
GUY
Right, it’s my mother.
GIRL
You said your mother is dead.
GUY
Fuck.
GIRL
YOU.
CUT TO:
EXT. PARK — DAY
Guy and Girl sit on the beach. Kids behind them LAUGH and SCREAM. They stare at each other.
GUY
What were you doing last night?
GIRL
I told you, I was working.
GUY
Then why were you posting Facebook status’ at 4am?
GIRL
I wasn’t! Check the time.
Guy moves closer to Girl. His face turns red, his eyes water.
GUY
Don’t need too, I know you were out with him. Why don’t you admit it!?
Girl backs away from Guy.
GIRL
With who? My brother.
GUY
Your ex. If not, why are you still talking to him?
GIRL
Why are you going through my text messages?
GUY
It couldn’t be because you cheated on me once.
GIRL
You’re dumb.
Girl gets up and walks away.
1. Who your ‘friends’ are.
You been friends with this person for a couple years now. They don’t wish you, Happy Birthday. Instead, they text you details about their life.
2. You’re still really immature.
Same person you were a year ago, five years ago, ten years ago, twenty years ago… you never change, just get older. It fucking sucks!
3. Another year has passed.
Still not close to your goal/dreams. It’s a ‘slow’ process you must keep going through. It fucking sucks!
4. You have ‘friends’ you’re not aware of.
Those people from high school/college you hardly, if ever talked to wishes you, Happy Birthday on Facebook.
5. Who really cares vs. Who is phony.
Some people you have dinner/celebrate with… other people send you a text, call you, or send you cheap gifts — so they don’t feel guilty about missing your birthday or play the ‘I did something so you have too’ card.
“You’re not getting fat.”
You could lose a few extra pounds.
“No, your butt doesn’t look too big.”
Nice ass.
“I didn’t spend that much.”
So what if I did.
“I didn’t get your text.”
I didn’t feel like texting.
“Your parents are fine.”
I can’t fucking stand them.
“No, your hair is not a mess.”
You look like a rag-doll.
“The sex was great.”
That was terrible.
“Sure, you can bring your friends.”
I hope you don’t bring your friends.
“I wasn’t up all night.”
Okay, I was. Big deal.
“I don’t watch porn.”
I watch porn when I’m not with you.
“I’m busy.”
I don’t want to talk right now.
“Sure, you can.”
You just wait…
